Oh hell yeah. Money is number one. And then at night it's just good business to have drinks and good times with current business partners and make new ones over a drink and maybe a whore or two. :Graucho

I do enough boring "all business" right here in my office. I did enjoy going to the shows back when all the sponsors and owners and affiliates were at ONE of them (the ia2000 shows for instance in vegas 10 years ago) because it was the only big show of the year.

With so many shows now, you just don't get that same concentration of business, fun, and pure spectacle. So the shows just aren't as valuable, memorable, or "must attend"

I know it isn't ever gonna go back to one show. Too many companies making a profit off of running shows to do that.

But even with a lot of folks hurting for money, the bad economy, piracy, etc. I do believe that if there was just ONE show in a year, it would be huge. Everybody would attend, sponsors wouldn't have to spread their money to a dozen shows so the spectacle would be a lot more grand, business would be done to a degree that some of the folks that have only been in this biz less than 10 years have NEVER seen.

But my Mama always told me: "Wish in one hand, spit in the other and see which one fills up first"

Your Mom was a smart woman Robbie. The challenge for the years to come is to bring that mentality to the new current economy situation as it is today.

So you're saying I need to keep spitting in my hand? :upsidedow
I'm confused! Can you talk in smaller words and use less complex ideas? :1orglaugh

It was nice to finally put a face to the name. Mr Frisky sure looked different than I'd imagined:

And if you look at the back of the picture you'll see Juicy D Links trying to score some Viagra off an old guy.

Will you in Montreal or Amsterdam soon? Drop me a line by email please if you want.

Nope. I'm not traveling for anymore webmaster shows. If they are in Vegas, I'll go. Otherwise no.

I'm going to turn my attention to "fan" shows. I believe I can sell more memberships and make more money just by having Claudia-Marie walk around those shows saying "hello" to fans than can be made anymore at the webmaster shows. At least at the current moment with no affiliates going to them anymore. I'm already knee-deep in all the B2B business deals I could ever want.

So I'm gonna take my case straight to the consumer.

They were actually just completing a cross sale card bang agreement and exchanging business cards.

Sounds like a porn site name! "Welcome to CARDBANG.COM! In our newest update a dozen American Express Black cards anally violate a Visa Platinum Business Card and shoot their dirty percentage rates all over her innocent silver face"

man you have been on the past two days, you have been making me laugh my ass off. :thumbsup:thumbsup
We shot with your girl Alissa today, a very hot scene and what a nice girl.

No other show gets this Much attention, year after year.

Tommorrow I'm hitting everyone on icq so don't ignore me. :)

We need 1 or at most 2 shows a year.
